So those of you who are in the You Know You're In Cap When... fb page (the good one, not the new snowflake one) know it's been pretty lit today. What are you guys' thoughts on CAP members who use the anonymity of social media to post things that they wouldn't say in person? Do y'all think there should be more serious repercussions for acting like a pos when you have CAP plastered across your facebook?

Please keep the discussion civil. I Don't want to get into specifics of the particular incident- I'd rather use it as a kind of case study to see what action can/should be taken

Its a difficult issue. SO many folks with fake profiles. They can say what they want, and be anon.

If you KNOW who it is, there are ways of dealing with it. Chain of command at lower levels. Keep it local if possible.

But when it comes to Facebook in general, its the wild west. Everyone participating should know that its not a place where "group pages" use Robert's Rules of Order or have any other means of order. Its anarchy at best, usually with a Admin (who created the page) or two that will monitor and control on a whim, depending on their mood that day.

IOW ... do NOT get on Facebook expecting it to always be pleasantries and perfect decorum. Its NOT the nature of the beast.

I know you'd said you didn't want to go into the specifics, but how specific can you relay here? (Not names or specific squadrons or anything) as I don't have a facebook account. Just the gist of what happened.

Please don't.

If it's that bad, nevermind then. On terms of online conduct, however, we should all follow our core values, as NIN said.
